port->nr_dports is used to represent how many dports added to the cxl
port, it will increase in add_dport() when a new dport is being added to
the cxl port, but it will not be reduced when a dport is removed from
the cxl port.
Currently, when the first dport is added to a cxl port, it will trigger
component registers setup on the cxl port, the implementation is using
port->nr_dports to confirm if the dport is the first dport.
A corner case here is that adding dport could fail after port->nr_dports
updating and before checking port->nr_dports for component registers
setup. If the failure happens during the first dport attaching, it will
cause that CXL subsystem has not chance to execute component registers
setup for the cxl port. the failure flow like below:
port->nr_dports = 0
dport 1 adding to the port:
add_dport() # port->nr_dports: 1
failed on devm_add_action_or_reset() or sysfs_create_link()
return error # port->nr_dports: 1
dport 2 adding to the port:
add_dport() # port->nr_dports: 2
no failure
skip component registers setup because of port->nr_dports is 2
The solution here is that moving component registers setup closer to
add_dport(), so if add_dport() is executed correctly for the first
dport, component registers setup on the port will be executed
immediately after that.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
